As for the French "No Try"
He is asked to judge if the ball is grounded by the referee as he thought he'd knocked on
He looks at that and once he's decided he hasn't knocked on he has to check/rule if there was anything the referee missed. That's when he looks at the double movement and starts the review of that

If French drops the ball the restart is based on the knock on and VR doesn't adjudicate on the double movement
Ah, I thought impeding would be foul play as it's a full penalty offense.
